Combining the Best of Traditional and Holistic Veterinary Care
At Canal Veterinary Hospital, we believe that optimal pet health comes from a balance of science, compassion, and whole-body healing. Our integrative medicine approach blends modern veterinary techniques with complementary therapies to support your pet’s body, mind, and spirit.
Whether your pet is recovering from illness, managing chronic pain, or simply needs preventive care, our goal is to provide gentle, effective treatments that enhance quality of life and promote long-term wellness.
What Is Integrative Veterinary Medicine?
Integrative medicine combines conventional Western medicine—such as diagnostics, surgery, and prescription medications—with holistic and alternative therapies like acupuncture, laser therapy, nutritional support, and herbal medicine. This comprehensive approach allows us to tailor each treatment plan to your pet’s unique needs.
Our veterinarians carefully evaluate your pet’s lifestyle, age, medical history, and personality to create a customized care plan that addresses both the symptoms and the underlying causes of disease.
